Burgstall Office

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Burgstall office was an electoral-Brandenburg , later a royal-Prussian domain office based in Burgstall ( Börde district , Saxony-Anhalt). It essentially emerged from the small lordship of the von Bismarck brothers, Burgstall , which the then electoral prince Johann Georg acquired in 1562 in exchange for the goods of the secularized Krevese monastery and the secularized Havelberg office of Schönhausen . The Burgstall office was dissolved in 1860.

history

The small lordship of Burgstall belonged to the brothers Heinrich, Friedrich, Jobst and Georg von Bismarck until 1562. In 1562, the then elector prince and later elector Johann Georg compelled the von Bismarck brothers to swap their lordship in Burgstall for the goods of the secularized Krevese monastery and the secularized Havelberg office of Schönhausen. The Burgstall rule became a sovereign domain office. In the district reform of 1816, the predominantly Altmark office came to the Wolmirstedt district of the Magdeburg administrative district of the Prussian province of Saxony .

The Dolle Vorwerk had a size of 904 acres of 140 square rods of fields, 3 acres of 9 square rods of gardens and 226 acres of 84 square rods of meadows. This included an important brewery and brandy distillery. The inconsistent gradient and apartment rents amounted to 31 Taler 22 Groschen 6 Pfennigs.

Although the lease on the Vorwerke Burgstall and Dolle with the bailiff Ballerstedt continued, the gradients and pensions were transferred to the newly established Burgstall Domain Rent Office. The rent office was transferred to the forest treasurer Bergemann. Around 1860 the remaining domain office in Burgstall was dissolved and the farmers were given the land for their timber justice. Burgstall, however, was listed for the last time as a domain lease office in the state calendar of 1855. The chief forester moved into the official building. The chief forester formed its own manor district. In 1864 he had 35 acres of arable land, 271 acres of meadows and 20,540 acres of woodland.

In 1874 administrative districts were formed in the Wolmirstedt district.
